Jesus And The Y Chromosome

[jomifl]

Jesus is said to have been male, if so where did his Y chromosome come from if Mary was a virgin?

[jim360]

Well, if God can't insert a Y chromosome into his only begotten Son, what can he do?

[ferlew]

Did they have testing back then?

[tonyav]

Well if God was his father would that mean that God is a male.

[Peter Pedant]

as in where did it come from ?

if God could create the world then it should be beyond him to do a Y chr


Tony the doctrine of the trinity is a bit post first century AD

[tonyav]

Yes Peter, although if God created everything then surely he created the Y chromosome that he gave to Jesus.

[bednobs]

Surely mary would have given him an x chromosome anyway?

[jomifl]

So Tony do you think he just slipped it in so as to speak when no one was looking? Why didn't he just create jesus fully formed and as he wanted him rather than the rather chancy way he appears to have gone about it?

[jomifl]

bednobs that can be assumed, I wonder if jesus took after his father?

[tonyav]

Iv'e no idea, jomifl, the bible is all fairy tale to me.

[Old_Geezer]

Are there not suggestions that some folk have given birth to their twin ? Who is to say that didn't happen here ? Maybe Jesus was her brother.

[jim360]

As plot holes go, I tend to think this is a minor one. Starts off by saying that God created everything -- I think He can fix a pesky Y chromosome if he wanted to.

[jomifl]

and who would notice anyway:o)

[Zacs-Master]

Shhhhh, it's all made up!

[plowter]

Virgin conception would be more plausible if Mary was a man

Tick tick ... boom

[mikey4444]

I was told years ago, by a Protestant Vicar ( ! ) that the word virgin came about because a mistranslation of the original term used. What the word actually meant was a single, unmarried woman, which isn't the same as virgin. So perhaps this Y chromosome came from his father Joseph ?

[jomifl]

Mikey, are you thinking what I'm thinking......the unthinkable...

[boxtops]

Joseph and Mary wouldn't have done the deed at the time Jesus was conceived, they weren't married - when she found she was pregnant, it was a terrible thing, and Joseph thought about casting her off as his fiancée. So they say.

The Vikings weren't wrong, then, calling the pagan festive Y-ule!

[naomi24]

Could he have been the culprit?

I don't think jeremy kyle could have had a mother, he has two Ys.
